TL;DR Summary

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill into law that exempts records related to his travel from the state's public disclosure law, including records related to his security and travel. The law applies retroactively and could allow the DeSantis administration to keep secret trips arranged by the governor's office even when he wasn't involved. Critics have slammed the legislation as an attempt to keep damaging information about DeSantis' travel from getting out just as he is expected to announce a campaign for president. Republicans said the measure was necessary to protect DeSantis and prevent details about his travel habits and security detail from falling into the hands of people who might be plotting an attack on the governor.
